There is one story in the Holy Scriptures that is one of my favorite among all the other biblical stories.…
“And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to him: ‘The Lord is with you, brave man!'”…
«Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you» — Matthew 7:7
Intercessory prayer is prayer not for oneself and not for one’s own needs, but for the needs of other people. It means to stand in the gap for someone, to stand between God and a person who needs prayer. (See Ezekiel 22:30)
«Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.» — James 5:16
